This theme allows the viewer to distinguish between and connect the relationship of inside (intrapersonal) and outside (interpersonal) communication.ДЇirstly, the fact that this movie is engaging, high quality and entertaining is both unique and helpful, because many of the movies that contain a mental health message can be quite вЂart houseвЂ™ and вЂdarkвЂ™, and are not suitable to a child audience. The storyline is superbly interwoven between Riley and her parentвЂ™s experiences of inside and outside their heads. The emotionally representative characters in RileyвЂ™s head undergo a crisis where вЂJoyвЂ™ and вЂSadnessвЂ™ get lost in her long term memory and must find their way back to the вЂcontrol baseвЂ™ where the other emotions are located. As the plot unfolds and Riley is struggling to adjust to her new surroundings. Each of these characters represent an emotion like anger, sadness, joy, disgust and anxiety. The unique insight to the plot is that the viewer is introduced to a number of characters inside RileyвЂ™s head. The central theme of Inside Out is based around a character called вЂRileyвЂ™ who is a young girl whoвЂ™s family have to move because her father cannot find work.

Dr Colman Noctor, Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist at St Patrick's Mental Health Services, takes us through how the use of metaphor in the film Inside Out can help children and young people tackle complex mental health topics.
